Who will you nominate?

Nominations are being accepted for the Phil Pickens Leadership Award! Please nominate a fellow Mentor, or a Special Ed Administrator you admire, for the Phil Pickens Leadership Award!  The Phil Pickens Leadership Award is a statewide honor, to recognize outstanding leadership in the collaborative work to improve outcomes for students with disabilities; outstanding contributions to the Georgia Parent Mentor Partnership program; and consistent, outstanding leadership accomplishments in special education.  The award is named after the founder of the Georgia Parent Mentor Partnership, Phil Pickens, and will be presented at our statewide Kickoff Conference.

Nomination deadline is extended until June 2

The Phil Pickens Committee’s goal is to have at least one nomination from each region. We would like the nominations to be a surprise if at all possible!  This means that YOU, as the person (or group) making the nomination, will write the information about the nominee. The nomination form has been simplified, and structured in a format that gives you guiding questions, so that you can easily describe your nominee’s accomplishments!
